She continued to watch the spider in amusement; nobody else in the room seemed to respond to the creature, so she was absolutely positive that it was all in her head. Curious thing, of all things to hallucinate. She didn't think a giant spider would be the object of her mind's insanity. As she rocked back and forth on her heels, she could feel Kieran- or his thoughts to be exact, enter the room. He didn't seem to react to the arachnid either which further confirmed her theory.

As soon as Kiernan's last thought entered her head, her mind suddenly sighed in defeat. The fog from her eyes cleared and she turned back to look at the wolf man, a scowl appearing on her face. "Don't blame him. Wasn't his fault he had shoddy colleagues watching his back." Her hands quickly covered her mouth when she realized how snappy and rude she had just sounded. That wasn't like her- she wasn't a mean person at all. What had gotten into her? She quickly shook her head as she lowered her hands. "I'm sorry. I'm so sorry, cuz. I didn't mean it, I swear."

With a shaky breath, she realized another's thoughts were permeating her mind. Or was it an actual voice? Blinking, she turned back to the counter and stared at the spider. Zara watched as it interacted with Athos. It was real? There actually was a giant spider sitting on the counter just mere inches away from her? A terrified shriek pulled from her throat and she took off her shoe, quickly tossing it at the creature. She ran backwards until she hit the opposite wall, her eyes wide and trained on the beast as she spoke to it's apparent master. "That's a spider! A SPIDER! What the hell are you thinking, Athos?! Never mind that, I know what you're thinking- get that out of here!"

It had been a very long, very sleepless night for Zara. Once she had steadied herself enough to bring herself to her feet, she trudged along the wall until she was once again in front of Felix's door. She could barely feel the turning of the knob, her feet sliding across his bedroom floor, before she landed face first onto his bed. There she stayed for what felt like an eternity- though was truly only for several hours.

She had hoped for a deep enough sleep to ease her troubled mind- she was clearly fresh out of good luck in that department. As her body eventually gave way to exhaustion, the dreams and thoughts of the others clashed with her own. She could see Felix being trapped; could feel the torment and anguish from each member who tried, and failed, to rescue him; could feel the guilt building in Isadora and Athos. It was all Zara could do to not scream.

When the sunlight started to peek it's way into the room, bloodshot eyes stared back at it. The woman drew a long, shaky breath from deep within her chest before pulling herself up off the bed. Dragging her feet over to the bathroom, she stared at her reflection; definite blood shot eyes surrounded by the puffiness of shed tears, strands of purple in every direction, and a sallow complexion to match. In all, Zara was quite the looker at this particular moment. With a small snort, she made her way into his shower, scrubbing away the night before. She then dressed in a pair of Felix's sweat pants and a black undershirt. It was slightly baggy on her slender frame, but she didn't care. Everything smelled of Felix and it brought her a sliver of comfort.

Her stomach soon rumbled, with much surprise. She usually didn't eat when she was upset- her body mostly shut down whenever her nerves were overloaded. However, she couldn't quite remember the last time she had actually consumed anything nutritious: off to the kitchen she went. As she sauntered along, she allowed her mind to go completely blank. There wasn't a single thought she wanted in her head, hers or anyone else's. As she made her way to the kitchen, she blinked and stared at the overly large arachnid on the kitchen counter. Thinking she was definitely hallucinating thanks to her clear head, she snorted and watched it. "Heyyyy itsy bitsy spider...You're a long ways away from the water spout."

I figure I'll wait till the next day for Athos to interact.

He will probably make a bee line for Zara

@BlackPanther

Just be prepared for crazy Zara to come out! She was already cracking a bit before she found out about Felix.
